Who we are
About the farm
We are based in Gagliano del Capo, at the southern tip of the Salento; the Melcarne family's tradition as olive growers and millers goes back to the late 16th century, and we remain bound to the centuries-old olive groves of the Salento. In our own mill we produce cold-extracted extra virgin olive oil – organic, single-variety (Leccino, Coratina, FS17 “Favolosa”) and Terrapetre selections – as well as flavoured oils pressed together with lemons, chillies, garlic or oranges, and pâtés. We welcome you at our mill from Monday to Saturday, and you can also order our products in our online shop.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
